CHBE 494 class schedule data for spring 2021
CRN	Type	Section	Time	Day	Location	Instructor	Section Details
72170	Online Lecture	AM	ARRANGED	n.a.	n.a.	Mironenko, A Shayesteh Zadeh, A	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 01/25/21-05/05/21 Credit: 3 hours Section Title: Multiscale Modeling Section Info: Meets with CHBE 594 AM. "Multiscale modeling of fluids, materials, and their reactions from first principles" Multiscale modeling enables predictions of the macroscopic behavior of fluids and materials from the properties of interacting electrons and atoms. The course focuses on the underlying theoretical framework and its applications to reacting and non-reacting molecular systems, hard and soft materials. About one-third of the course covers quantum mechanical aspects of multiscale modeling, ranging from fundamentals of quantum mechanics and density functional theory to approximate semiempirical theories and reactive force fields. The two-thirds of the course span a breadth of topics, including interatomic potentials, molecular dynamics, Monte Carlo, bottom-up and top-down coarse-graining, QM/MM, scaling relationships, kinetic Monte Carlo, and mean-field kinetic modeling from first principles. Restriction(s): Restricted to Undergrad - Urbana-Champaign.
70492	Online Lecture	CPS	2:00PM -2:50PM	MWF	n.a.	Floess, j Merlin, A	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 01/25/21-05/05/21 Credit: 3 hours Section Title: Process Safety Section Info: Process Safety is at the core of all industrial processes. In this course, we will cover the basics and various approaches for process safety, understand fires and explosions, design reliefs and process equipment, and employ tools for hazard identification and accident investigations. Restriction(s): Restricted to Undergrad - Urbana-Champaign.
69169	Lecture	CVR	11:00AM -12:20PM	TR	23 Illini Hall	Bansal, P Rao, C	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 01/25/21-05/05/21 Credit: 3 hours Section Title: Comp Methods in Chemical Engr Section Info: Computational Methods in Chemical Engineering. Meets with CHBE 594 CVR. This section will have distributed classroom attendance with supplemental instruction. You will receive an email from the instructor with specific attendance directives. Restriction(s): Restricted to Undergrad - Urbana-Champaign.
45003	Online Lecture	SAR	11:00AM -12:20PM	TR	n.a.	Rogers, S Shi, J	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 01/25/21-05/05/21 Credit: 3 hours Section Title: Polymer Rheology Section Info: Meets with CHBE 594 SAR. Polymer Rheology Course builds a molecular understanding of polymer characterization and properties and develops a link between the physical chemistry of the microstructure and macroscopic behaviors. The course begins with polymeric descriptions from a physical basis and continues with polymer solution thermodynamics in the context of Flory-Huggins theory. After fundamentals, the course considers polymer characterization from a rheological (flow and deformation) perspective. with overage of dynamics, linear and nonlinear viscoelasticity, the rheology of dilute and networked polymer systems, and time-temperature superposition. The course concludes with models for dilute polymeric suspensions, unentangled polymer melts, entanglements, and the reptation model. Restriction(s): Restricted to Undergrad - Urbana-Champaign.
68623	Online Lecture	ST	11:00AM -12:20PM	TR	n.a.	Chen, Z Peters, B	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 01/25/21-05/05/21 Credit: 3 hours Section Title: Statistics in Chemical Engrg Section Info: The course focuses on the use of statistical methods for describing the distribution of data and their analysis with explicit applications in chemistry and chemical engineering. Probability distributions, sampling and experimental design are discussed, and topics from quality control, reliability estimation and various statistical intervals—confidence, prediction, tolerance, hypothesis testing, and the analysis of variance for comparing more than two populations or treatments will be practiced. Regression models and associated inferential procedures will also be covered. Credit is not given for both CHBE 494ST and either IE300 or STAT400.
